Comment (by kencu):

 autoconf was updated a few days ago after about 8 years, and adds the
 gtkdocize problem.

 We may see 1000 ports that need gtk-doc added as a build dep. Or perhaps
 we sort out how to add it to autoconf directly, but unfortunately at
 present there is a circular dependency issue (gtk-doc depends on glib2
 which depends on autoconf which (maybe) depends on gtk-doc). There is
 another ticket tracking this issue.

 For now you can activate the previous autoconf to get rid of this
 particular headache until more ports are fixed.

 no idea about the cpp issue, but I would not be surprised if that also
 comes from the new autoconf.

 We have only just begun to feel the pain coming from this autoconf upgrade
 I fear...
